There is no way to copy only full backups, if any other backups are presented
in primary pools.
You have to expiry all previous backups before making copy - for example, just
change temporary copy groups to have 1 day retention.
Be careful with TSM database logs - do expiry process pool by pool and monitor
TSM database.
In general, I will advise you to copy all data to copy pools instead of
expiring previous backups.

Subject: [ADSM-L] TSM Copypool question
We have recently installed TSM 5.5 on a new server and using a new IBM TS3200
tape library.
It took some time to migrate the data over from the tapes used in the old tape
library to the new (migrating data from LTO2 & LTO3 tapes to LTO4 tapes) but
that has finally finished.
While that was happening we were performing backups of client servers onto the
new library, but I was not copying the data from the primary tape storage pool
to the copypool to send offsite. I now wish to start this process.
Is it possible to perform full backups of each client now to the primary
storage pool and have the backed up data flagged so that if I start copying the
data from the primary tape storage pool to the copypool via the "backup stg"
command it will only copy the data from the full backups I do now onwards?
Thanks & Regards
Paul
